$1.3m worth of lifesaving supplies arrives for #IDPs in N/East Nigeria

A Boeing 747 cargo plane arrived Abuja on Sunday with $1.3m worth of lifesaving supplies for internally displaced persons in northeast Nigeria. The plane brought in health kits containing essential medicines and health supplies for primary health centres in the states affected by the crisis. The health kits will serve nearly one million people for a period of three months. There were also water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) dignity kits including clean water storage cans, basic menstrual hygiene products enough for 80,000 women and adolescent girls for 3 months.Thanks #UPS for taking care of the freight costs.
